Boomer Musings: It's a quiet Sunday

Words to live by...

"How beautiful it is to do nothing, and to rest afterward."

[Spanish Proverb]

Ius luxuriae publice datum est

(The right to looseness has been officially given)

"Everyone carries a part of society on his shoulders," wrote Ludwig von Mises, "no one is relieved of his share of responsibility by others. And no one can find a safe way for himself if society is sweeping towards destruction. Therefore everyone, in his own interest, must thrust himself vigorously into the intellectual battle."

Apparently, the crossword puzzle that disappeared from the blog, came back.

It's a quiet Sunday

The following Youtube video features a song sung back in 1958 by The Kingston Trio. Back in the days when Folk Music and coffeehouses were the Big Thing. Back when political commentary was mostly mild and sardonic...

I miss those days sometimes on gray overcast mornings like today.
